I will be doing a Wing Walk on the top of a biplane in May in aid of the Pilgrims Hospices in East Kent.  I am a frailty practitioner at the William Harvey Hospital, Ashford.  As well as providing clinical treatment for mildly frail patients, our team also seeks to provide care, dignity and comfort for folk as they come towards the end of their time, often with the involvement of the Pilgrims Hospices..

At its heart, Pilgrims is dedicated to providing skilled and compassionate care, free of charge, to people living with an incurable illness in east Kent. Their vision is that people with a life-limiting illness are supported and empowered to live well in mind & body, making the most of the time they have. They care for over 2,500 patients a year, at their 3 inpatient units in Canterbury, Thanet & Ashford, their therapy centres, or in patients’ own homes. With 80% of their funding being voluntary contributions, your support cannot be overstated.
